Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
ASUS has released new mobos supporting DDR3 memory and lot of features.
ASUS M4A78-PRO : should be around 8k
ASUS M4A78T-E: Should be around 10k

Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
I would say go for DDR2
My option would be Intel Core2Quad+DDR2+P45 chipset+HD4850

Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
 Dual CF 16x ???
That makes it future proof for HD5870X2.
Wait a sec, is it SB750 southbridge ???

Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
wrong.
all early (aka cheap) 790FX boards had SB600.
not every board was revised with SB750.

Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
720 is better if you want to overclock. Its cheaper, supports DDR3 so you can upgrade motherboard later, is a champion overclocker and rocks at gaming since they are all dual core optimised anyway (2 cores for gaming and 1 core for OS makes 3-core kick ass).

Re: mobo for AMD 940 processor
^^ Hmm, yes you must be right.
Whatever you do, if you want overclocking, get a Black Edition CPU.
Non B.E. CPUs don't OC well as you cannot even increase the Voltage afaik.
